The path starts from the village of Kourounochori from where the Sommaripa/Fragopoulos tower house stands, one of the oldest on the island.
The trail follows an elliptical course, below the installations of the ancient aqueduct, which can be visited, and ends at Flerio where you can see an ancient sanctuary and the two half-finished, huge statues of Kouroi, made by Naxian marble and dated back to the 6th century BC.
From Flerio, the trail initially goes uphill on a wide footpath towards to Ano and Kato Potamia villages, that provide an idyllic environment with abundant flowing waters and great old plane trees – you actually forget that you are on an island.
